In about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes they should be starting to get some softness to them and plenty of smoke flavor.

Taste one and see what you think.

Crank Up the Heat

Brussel sprouts are best when they are finished with some high heat and I especially like to find some stray crispy leaves here and there.

If you are using a pellet smoker then you can simply crank up the heat to about 450°F. You could also use the grill or the oven at 450-500°F for about 25 minutes. Stir everything around several times during the roasting process.

The brussel sprouts are finished when they are soft and slightly browned around the edges.

Enjoy!

Jeff's Smoking Meat Book

The book is full of recipes and contains tons of helpful information as well. Some have even said that "no smoker should be without this book"!

With more than 800 reviews on Amazon.com and a rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars, it comes highly recommended.

These should be placed into an iron skillet or a pan and placed into the smoker that way. They should be stirred occasionally to make sure all of them get some access to the smoke. If you are using a Bradley smoker, be sure to use a pan or multiple pans that are small enough to allow plenty of air/heat circulation around the Bradley racks. Bradley warns against using foil and pans in the smoker.

I highly recommend the “Smoke” by Thermoworks if you are looking for a remote meat thermometer. It is wireless up to 300 feet away, dual probes, 1800 hour battery life, the main unit and the remote unit stays synced at all times (no re-syncing needed), and it is splash-proof. Very durable thermometer unit and looks tough like it could last a very long time. Check it out at http://www.smoking-meat.com/smoke

Though – why bother frying the bacon separately or moving to the oven? We do much the same recipe, but don’t bother to fry the bacon beforehand – instead, dice the uncooked bacon and “smoke” it at 250-300 mixed with the sprouts. Saves work and captures the same delicious flavor. (You can bring the temp up at the end to speed up the cook if needed.)

The “Smoke” Thermometer

The Smoke thermometer by Thermoworks is wireless, has dual probes, is splash-proof, has extremely rugged construction and amazing battery life not to mention how simple it is to set min/max alarms on the fly..
